This “green salsa” packs a fresh and spicy flavor. Ideal for chip dipping or for adding extra zest to many Mexican entrees.

Why try? The green color adds interest and eye appeal, and pays it off with fiery Mexican flavor.

Foodie Byte: You can include the leaves and stems from the cilantro if you wish—except the large bottom stem.

 

Ingredients

  • 18 tomatillos (about 2 1/2 pounds)
  • 1/2 cup cilantro
  • 1/2 large white onion
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 5 Serrano chilies

Preparation

  • 1
    Remove husks & stems and halve the tomatillios.
  • 2
    Remove stem from all serranos and seeds from two of the chilies.
  • 3
    Chop onion in large dice.
  • 4
    Place all ingredients in processor and puree until smooth. Serve with crisp tortilla chips or use as condiment with other Mexican dishes.
